Ellen MacArthur Foundation Global Commitment 2024 Progress Report

Over 1,000 organisations from across the world, including businesses representing 20% of all plastic packaging produced globally and over 50 government signatories, have mobilised behind the Global Commitment’s common vision of a circular economy for plastic, in which it never becomes waste. Signatories set ambitious 2025 targets to help realise that common vision. This sixth annual progress report looks at how the signatories are faring against these targets and key lessons learned along the way.
